Audio rates apparently don't match FCE and recording Is there a cure?

I am using a Panasonic DVX100A to transfer a miniDV tape shot on an inexpensive consumer DV Camera into FCE-HD, but at the conclusion of the capture I get an error message that I need to set the audio rate to match that of the camera. I'm new to editing so I'm not sure what that means or how I find out what the audio rate of the camera is so I can set FCE-HD to that rate---or does it mean the audio rate at which the tape was originally recorded on the consumer DV Camera? If so, is there a way to know that audio rate without having access to that camera?
thanks.

I'm going to venture a guess that the video was recorded as 12-bit audio (usually the default setting in miniDV camcorders) ... and you're probably using the DV-NTSC easy setup in FCE. The DV-NTSC easy setup expects 16-bit audio. Try changing your easy setup to DV NTSC 32KHz and then recapture the material into a new sequence.
Also check your DVX settings - is it set for 12-bit or 16-bit audio?
And contact whoever shot the video and ask them to check the settings in their camcorder & let you know what audio setting it was or is set for. (12-bit = 32KHz, 16-bit = 48KHz). If it's 12-bit, they should change it to 16-bit for future shoots.

  • Audio/Video presets don't match

    When I capture video, I get this message:
    The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. The may cause the video and audio of the media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate on your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape.
    I've tried to find a way to access changing the kHz and bit rate (currently 12 on my Canon XL1S) but without luck.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    For existing tapes that were recorded in 12-bit audio, your options would be:
    1) in FCE select the DV-NTSC 32KHz Easy Setup and recapture the tape to a new sequence using this Easy Setup (32KHz = 12 bit audio) or
    2) dub your tape to another camcorder via ANALOG connection and then capture the new tape in FCE. Of course, make sure that the second camera is set up to record 16-bit audio when you dub <grin>
    For the future, you really should change your camera's setup to 16-bit audio. On the Canon camcorders, this is normally in the camera setup menus under 'audio' or a/v.
    Try Camera menu > VCR setup > Audio mode > 16 bit. The XL1S manual is available online at the Canon Product Support website. You should select 16-bit audio and keep it that way for all future filming.

  • Video/sound don't match all of a sudden!

    Adding some sound and music to a 20 minute movie using Logic. Things were fine for a while but now the video is slightly behind the audio. Can't figure for the life of me why. Any help?

    many thanks for reply. but i'm finding that even if i redo it, add movie than import audio, they still don't match up and i'm sure they did in the first while that i worked on this. how weird. any thoughts are MUCH appreciated.

  • Audio and Video Don't Match - HELP

    So I have imported some footage from my iPod Nano into iMovie.  I drag it ALL into the box above to edit, then play a bit to make sure it's viewing fine.  The first minute or two is fine, but then the audio and visual part start to not match up.  I know I can seperate the audio from it, but then I am unable to make all the jumpcuts, cutting out audio as well.
    Hoping someone can help me as soon as possible.  This is a vlog for my YouTube channel.  Thank you!

    This happened to me when my original is recorded with broken timecode.
    Try to rerecord the video firewire to firewire to another recorder and record it to your FCP.

  • Audio rate doesn't match

    So I figured out I could capture video with my old Hi8 camera through a firewire. I use easy set-up with DV-NTSC. The camera gets controled by the capture window, looks for time code, everything is smooth. However, it tells me that my audio might be out of synch because the audio rate doesn't match. What is the standard audio for a Hi8 tape?

    It's probably simplest to check your FCE Easy Setup, which will be either 48kHz (not necessarily specified) or 32kHz. Switch to whichever one is not your current selection and recapture.

  • Genius says my numbers don't match and the phone has been tampered with. Can anybody help?

    I have an iPhone4S 64Gb, which I bought from the Apple Store in Covent Garden in December 2011. Recently it developed a problem where it won't shut down (it restarts itself) and the battery life has deteriorated significantly. Having read about this in this Forum, this seems to be a known issue, and a replacement is needed.
    Sure enough, the Genius Bar at Covent Garden took one look at it and wanted to replace it. But then there was a problem. Apparently, one of the serial numbers on the phone (the chassis) does not match the ones on sim tray and software. The Genius (Barry) and his manager (Adam) both said that this could only be a result of tampering or non-Apple servicing. They say the chassis part comes from a batch which originated in Bulgaria.
    What??!!
    My phone has not been touched by anybody but me since I bought it in December. There's no way I would let a non-authorised dealer touch it - I know full well that it would void the warranty, wouldn't trust it, and anyway I've always had a really good Genius Bar experience. More importantly, it's been fine - no need.
    So, what then? Their hypothesis is that somebody has tampered with my phone without my knowledge. As is probably true for many iPhone users, my phone is not far behind my wedding tackle in the extent to which I am attached to it, indeed it spends a lot more time in my hand and line of sight. The idea that somebody could have had access to my phone for long enough to have opened it up and resealed it, having changed parts, without my knowing, is completely absurd. I just don't believe it.
    And why would they? If you're going to steal a phone, then steal it. Barry's theory is that some people steal legitimate serial numbers in order to qualify for Apple servicing. Really? Wouldn't they still have a phone with mismatched serial numbers that Apple then wouldn't touch? It seems utterly far-fetched.
    In short, I have no idea how Apple managed to supply me with what appears to be a dodgy handset. Supply chain failure, admin failure, I don't know. I know that it hasn't been 'serviced' by anybody, but I can tell that Barry and Adam don't believe me. They believe that the fact of mismatched serial numbers are incontrovertible evidence of tampering. (I'm minded to point out that they opened up the phone out of my sight, hence becoming the only people with the opportunity - and expertise - to do exactly what they're alleging has been done).
    The issue is now with Corporate Customer Servcies. I'm not hugely optimistic.
    Has anybody out there experienced anything similar? Can anybody offer any theories (preferably without straying into corporate conspiracy fantasies) as to how the numbers may have become mismatched?
    Grateful for any help.

    I'm still in "recovery mode" after a huge fight with our local Applestore.
    About 6 weeks ago, my wife's 13 month old iPhone 4S developed the "won't turn off" fault and was replaced, out of warranty, for a fee of £139 and with a 90 day warranty.
    About two weeks after that we realised that there was a sound problem when trying to use Facetime (the person on the other end couldn't hear us) but as we have ipads in the household, we didn't immediately persue it and assumed it was down to some setting problem.
    Two weeks ago my wife was shooting some video with the phone, something we hadn't done before and on playback there was no sound.  We realised then that the phone probably had hardware issues and arranged to take it back to the store for repair or replacement.
    I wasn't anticipating any problem when they said that it was a hardware issue and assumed that a replacement would be supplied.
    They looked inside an found that a dozen screws were missing and all the EM shielding that's normally screwed in place was also missing.  On this basis, they refused to repair or replace.  Things got a little tense after that.
    I KNOW that we didn't remove any parts.  I find it impossible to believe that even if a third party had obtained access to my wife's phone, that they would have opened the phone, removed the screws and EM screens (including the one that has the QR code serial number), put it back together and then returned it to its original position.
    As I repeated ad nauseum to the manager of the store, the only possible other option was that the phone was supplied in that condition.  After an hour and a half of arguing, sometimes quite loudly and refusing to leave the store until they replaced the handset, they caved in.
    I don't believe that Apple quality control is 100% accurate.  In fact I'm sure that no manufacturer's QC is.  How our handset slipped through the net I don't know but it did.
    I don't know whether this story will help you in any way but I hope you get your problem resolved

  • FCE and QT PRO Analog Capture Audio sync problems

    I have had major problems importing analog content into a DV quicktime movie and having the audio match.
    First example: using a sony digital 8 camera with old hi-8 tapes (the camera does the analog to digital conversion) I open final cut express HD capture now or new movie recording in QT pro, and go for the whole tape or tv show. beginning is usually ok, but if i stop and start the camera, fast forward through commercials while capturing, or let the source end before i stop the capture It seems the audio becomes un-synced. usually lags by 1 sec or so, but sometimes the audio comes early by a few frames. sometimes progressivly getting worse later in the capture, sometimes the whole thing is off by the same amount. If i capture between camera starts and stops i have no problems.
    Second example: using a pyro AV firewire analog converter, I get the same behavior when trying to capture in Final cut Express HD and QT pro.
    My guess is that since there is no timecode on the analog source that somehow messes things up, but why do these programs shift the audio on me?

    Most likely cause is your photographer changed the audio rate from 44.1k or 48k to something else.
    Aside from that, no, it's highly unlikely it is the software. It's easy to blame FCP for this stuff, and we love to do it, but the capture from DV over FW is a complete clone of a digital file, nothing is being changed by FCP or QT during the process, unless your settings have been tweaked and that's a user decision.
    If simply sliding the audio back into sync is not an option, dub the tapes to another DV deck via FW (producing a clone, not a generational loss) and capture form the dubs. You can experiment with a short take or two.
    If the audio sync issue persists, it's the original footage, not FCP.

  • Printing from InDesign and Photoshop - colors don't match

    I'm printing the same CMYK image from Photoshop and from InDesign, to a HP desktop color printer. I'm using CS3, all the color settings are identical in both programs, but the printed colors don't match. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    (cross-posted in InDesign forum)

    I have had the same problem: an image printed from PS differs from the same image printed from ID. However, I can't very well print as bitmap from ID since the image is part of a spread, including text. I have tried various combinations of settings. I made the PS image to 100% of the ID final size (in the layout). I tried various print dialogue settings (high transparency flattener, medium transparency flattener, color managed, not color managed, CMYK output and leave unchanged ... every combination I could think of). ID does something on printer output. My understanding (at least from CS2) was that ID output to printer uses a PDF format of some sort. I had the idea maybe the ID output did some sort of resampling or re-rendering of the image, but have not prooved that out. I did get some slight improvement in the ID output when the image in the ID layout was put in at 100% (whereas it had been 88% (the original image being bigger than the ID layout size). What I am getting now in CS3 is a clean looking photo in PS, but in ID, skin tones look somewhat blotchy and a bit more saturated. The PS image is better than ID, and while ID is not bad, why is it not as clean as PS? I can definitely see the difference between PS and ID output and know it will show on press, too. Any suggestions?

  • Songs and album covers don't match up?

    On my 4s, when I enabled Icloud and downloaded my music library something got out of sync. Now, most songs don't match up to the album cover etc. displayed on my screen. I have tried deleting and downloading again and the problem remains. Any suggestions?

    Album cover images depend on whether you downloaded the album/song off the pre-installed iTunes store on the iPod or you downloaded an mp3 from your computer into iTunes then synced it to the device, the only solution in this case without consulting apple help directly would be to try purchasing a song or album from the on-device iTunes store and seeing if you get a cover image then, otherwise I'd seek help from apple themselves as it may be a software issue and you could possibly get your device looked at or replaced under your 1 year warrantee. That is if your still covered.
    hope this helps, olly.
